Slimline Compost Caddy Fits Under the Sink

If you prefer to keep kitchen compost scraps out of sight, here's a slim compost caddy that tucks into a narrow space in a cabinet or under the
sink. Wide enough for scraping vegetable scraps from plates and cutting boards, it holds a generous 2.4 gallons — more than twice as much
as most caddies. The hinged lid opens easily and snaps tightly shut, and a carbon filter controls odors.

Disappointed in this product. The narrow design does fit under the sink but makes it difficult to scoop stuff into it. Poor quality. The lid cracked after one day. Also the Gardeners.com compost bags don't fit it. I've gone back to my counter-top bucket with the GREAT compost bags from gardeners.com. This is gathering dust.

I have just purchased my second one of these, so that should indicate that I think it's a good product. My first one was very handy (I even bought one for a friend), but the plastic lid began to break down after a few years of use, and eventually broke altogether. It holds a lot of scraps, and can be tucked away under the sink, although I find it more convenient to keep it on the countertop. The plastic does eventually hold odors, which I found could be mitigated with a good soak in a solution of dishwasher soap. The carbon filter is of dubious value, I wouldn't bother buying extras.

I've been using this bin for about 3 weeks and so far it has been great! It fits perfectly in the cabinet under the sink (which is already pretty full, so it's slim size it a bonus)and I've found that it can hold a lot of kitchen scraps! I usually go at least 3 or 4 days before taking out the composter and I haven't had any issues with smell at all. It works just as advertised so I am very happy with it!

I was looking forward to having this in my new kitchen. Unfortunatly, it arrived cracked and broken. I had intended to return it but my construction guys threw it out thinking it was trash, so I can't return it. I'm debating on a way forward.

Fit well under the sink and filter kept smell at bay. However, the lid would not shut without carefully pushing down on both ends, which defeats the purpose of putting it under the sink lengthwise. In futzing with closing the lid, the thin plastic broke, and I am unable to use the product after just a few weeks.

I work for a student apartment complex and when I ordered these, I placed the order for 25 bins. When we received them, four of them were broken because they were not packed carefully. I was disappointed, but other than that the bins work very well. I just need to figure out what to do with the other four that cracked.

The long, slim design is great! It works exactly as it is described. I have been using for about a month and there is NO odor - no matter what goes in: tomato skins, onion, peppers (I've been making salsa), banana peel, apple core.... It holds a large volume such that I don't need to dump with any regularity. I purchased the extra pack of filters, but have not yet had need to change out. I do note, as per another customer, that there is no protection keeping filter from touching scraps. It is nothing pretty or decorative for the counter, but it is extremely practical.
